This invention relates to an all weather double service wrap;

f the knees for use by teamsters, drivers of open vehicles, occupants of open vehicles, campers, boatmen, fishermen and motorists; 4also the same wrap can quickly be applied or adjusted to the shoulders of any of the `just specified users, besides being used by athletes of all kinds.

Jinother object of the invention is the construction of a wrap that can be applied quickly in two separate or independent positions upon the body, for use as a knee wrap or a shoulder wrap.

With the foregoing and other objects in view, my invention comprises cert-ain novel constructions, combinations, and arrangements of parts as will be hereinafter fully described, illustrated in the accompanying drawings, and more particularly pointed out in the appended claims:

In the drawings: A

Figure 1 is a view showing my wrap in use as a shoulder-wrap.

Figure 2 is a view showing my wrap in use a knee-wrap. l

Figure 3 is a perspective view of the wrap as it appears when muse on thev knees and legs of the wearer.

Figure 4f. is an outside plan view of the wrap.

Figure 5 is an inside plan View of the wraL Referring to the drawings by numerals, 1 designates the body of the wrap, which maybe made of either waterproof or nonwaterproof material, or of waterproof goods on one side and non-waterproof goods on the other side. rThe wrap or body 1 is incut at 2 to lit around the neck of the wearer or to better fit the waist. At the upper corners of the body 1 are long waist tabs 3 and 4. Along the front edge 5 are secured preferably ltwo outwardly extending shortvbreast tabs 6. On these breast tabs 6, near their outer ends, are the caps 7 of the fastening devices, Vwhich co-operate with the studs 8 along the other front edge 9; when the wrap is being used on the shoulders, as shown in Figure `1, th`e caps@4 snap over the studs 8 th'e'rebyassis ing in holding' the front .edges 5y an`d9 'close together. The cap '10, at one of the uppercorners of` the body, snaps over thestudll for assisting in holding the inout upper edge 2 around the neck of thewearer.

To' adapt the "wrap for use as aprotec-tor of the knees of the wearer, the long tabs is provided with caps 12 near its outer end and the tab 3 is provided with studs 13, upon which caps 2 can be fastened, by pressing the snap fasteners together. These longtabs 3 and 4 are fastened varound the body of the wearer near the hips, as shown in TFigure 2; these fasteners upon the waist tabs 3 and 4 produce an adjustable fastener, because it willfbe apparent that agreater length can be Yobtained if the outer cap 412 is placed'up'on the outer stud 13, udiereas when .the outer cap 12'is placed upon the inner stud 13, the connection 'will befshorter'. l y i Along `the lower edge lof the body 1, I arrange in a novel' manner two pairs 15 of fastening devices. Eachy pair comprises a cap-16 and 'astud 17; thecapsare open upon the inner falce`v of the body, with the studs projectingfiipon the inner face so that when the cap, in each pair, is pressed upon the stud of the particular pair, the ankle of the wearer will be entirely surrounded by the wrap, as shown in Figure 2. Therefore, itu will be seen that 1 have provided a knee-wrap, which is furnished with novel means for fastening the wrap separately around the ankles of the legs and at thev same time, the upper portion of the wrap is adjustably fast` enedaround the waist at the hips. This results in the wea-rer being protected from the weather around his legs and lower body portion, whereas when the same wrap is applied, as shown in Figure 1'to the shoulders and trunk of the body, the wearer will be equally as well protected from the weather at the shoulders, etc.

A pocket, or pockets 18 may be fastened.; V to the outside of the body 1 and similar pockets 19 may be fastened to the inside of the body; that is to say, the wrap is to be a reversible wrap and is to have a pocket or pockets, such as 18 and 19 on whicheveriside is exposed by the wearer.

VWhile I have described the preferred emr bodiment of my invention and illustrated Jche same in the accompanying drawings, certain minor changes or alterations may appear to one skilled in the art to which this invention relates during the extensive manufacture 'of` the same, and I, therefore, reserve the rightVA to make such alterations or changes as shallv fairly fall within the scope of the appended claims. y

What I claim is: 'n l. As a new article, of "manufacture, a double service wrap, comprising a single piece body provided at its upper corners with integral 'wc ist tabs, sets of legfastening den vices within the marginal edges of and on said body a considerable distance frein its side edoes and at its lower edge, and'each set oflegl astening devices adapted to secure a portionof said body bag-like around a leg with the foot projectingbelow and free of Y said body, substantially described. 2. As a anew article of .manufactura a double service wrap, comprising a body incut at its upper edge forming two corners, long waist tabs formed of integral parts of said body and extending only from said cor 11ers, and two sets of snap fasteners secured within the marginal edges of and to said body a considerable distance in from the Vside edges, and, at its lower edge, whereby poras shown and tions of said body can be fastened separately around each leg with the foot projecting below and free of said body,`substantially as shown and described.

In testimony whereof I hereunto aiix my signature. Y
